Product Description
A waiters friend is an essential tool for any server working at an event serving drinks. Whether you are serving wine, champagne or beer it’s probable that your servers are going to need a tool to open bottles.
A waiters friend is the perfect tool to carry to open any kind of bottle. As well as a corkscrew and a bottle opener, there is a blade on this tool for removing wrapping from bottles.
Like all of our bar hire, we clean and check each Waiters Friend before we pack them ready for delivery.
